I'm not running an O2 because its arriving in the mail on monday

you get a check engine light and i think it screws your gas mileage up.

i went from 20+ MPG to like 13MPG

Your not running ANY o2 sensor? Ya that's good.

He's talking about the REAR O2 sensor, not the front one. Only an idiot would run without a front O2 unless it was tuned specifically for it.

i didnt buy the extension before i installed the headers.

You do not need an extension for the rear. You need one for the front.

Dent the body of your car where it hits. It is not noticeable on the inside, and gives you the room you need.

oh... lol well regardless i dont have the extension on it yet.

monday afternoon i will. i ordered it two+ weeks ago but it went to my HOUSE

And i just transfered to Miami so i had to get it sent here.

my MPG has been sucking recently other then that its been fine.

So you are not running with the front 02 then.

whichever one needed the extension. drove from Tampa to Miami (about 5 hours) just fine. my MPG kinda sucks (normal 22mpg, to 14mpg) now. but i assume when i get the extension it would be just fine.

i still haven't fixed my coolant fan issue.


going to remove the fan motor this week.

all headers need the front extended

Right...but from my understanding of the thread so far and him saying he ISN'T running the one that needs the extension since he doesn't HAVE the extension...means he has been driving around without his front o2. I thought I had mine plugged in once but I guess it didn't snap in and came loose. He isn't joking I was seeing around 9 mpg's. Easy fix though...you can also just splice the wires you have and extend them down a couple feet and wrap them in exhaust tape or header wrap.

Just to throw crap in the fan my SSAC's hit the heat shield.

Do you have shortened dog bones or something? Mine have plenty of room.

i got stock dogbones.

i did this... works fine.

i also had 97/98 style fans on my car so they were bigger than the 99+ thin ones.
